Listing and clumping is meant for explanatory/informational text. The idea behind listing and clumping is to brainstorm ideas on a topic at one time (list). Once all the ideas are listed then clump like ideas together (clumping) as the basis for writing each paragraph. Each clump can be labeled with it's own main idea. With elementary students, use post it notes for each listed idea and then the students are able to manipulate their ideas and remanipulate them when clumping like ideas together for potential paragraphs.

Latex agglutination test?

DefinitionThe latex agglutination test is a laboratory method to check for certain antibodiesor antigens in a variety of bodily fluids including saliva, urine, cerebrospinal fluid, or blood.How the test is performedThe test depends on what type of sample is needed.For a urine sample, see urine collection -- clean catch or urine collection (infants).For a blood sample, see venipuncture.For a cerebrospinal fluid sample, see CSF collection.The sample is sent to a lab, where it is mixed with latex beads coated with a specific antibody or antigen. If the suspected substance is present, the latex beads will clump together (agglutinate).For example, if your health care provider suspects that your child has strep throat, a throat swab is taken. The sample is mixed with latex beads that are coated with antibodies against the bacteria. If your child has strep throat, the bacteria in the sample will react with the antibodies on the latex particles causing clumping.Latex agglutination results take about 15 minutes to an hour.How to prepare for the testYour health care provider may tell you to limit certain foods or medications shortly before the test to ensure accurate test results.How the test will feelHow the test feels depends on how the sample is collected.Why the test is performedThis test is a quick way to determine the absence or presence of an antigen or antibody. Your health care provider will base any treatment decisions, at least in part, on the results of this test.Normal ValuesNormal values reveal no agglutination.Note: Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.What abnormal results meanIf there is an antigen-antibody match, agglutination will occur.What the risks areRisks depend on how the sample is collected.
